Sustainability impact

Equipment engineered for long-lasting operation and built from recyclable materials, in line with the principles of the circular economy.

Key features

It turns a cost into revenue

the combustible fraction is otherwise a landfill cost, and once briquetted it becomes a product cement plants buy as a coal substitute.

Three operations in one machine

shredding, drying and pressing are integrated, so you do not need three separate installations to reach the finished product.

High density, cheap transport

the briquettes have uniform specifications and high density, so the transport cost per unit of energy delivered drops significantly.

Product description

At the end of every sorting line there remains a fraction nobody buys as material: mixed plastic offcuts, contaminated paper, textiles, composites. It cannot be recycled, but it burns well. An RDF briquette machine turns exactly this fraction from a landfill cost into fuel you sell. RDF stands for refuse…

Municipal waste

Municipal waste sorting plants, from the bag to recoverable material

Household waste arrives mixed and bagged. A sorting plant opens it, screens it into size fractions, separates the light material from the heavy one and extracts metals, plastic, paper and glass. We configure complete lines and also supply the individual machines, from the bag opener and trommel screen through to the magnetic and eddy current separators, the optical sorters and the balers.
